Can Racks and Door Bins

(on some models)

NOTE: Can racks may be purchased as an Accessory for some 
models.

To Remove and Replace the Racks/Bins:

1. Remove the rack/bin by lifting it and pulling it straight out.

2. Replace the rack/bin by sliding it in above the desired 

support and pushing it down until it stops.

Adjustable Utility Compartment & Tray

(on some models)

The utility compartment and tray slide from one side to the other 
for more flexible storage. The tray fits on either side of the utility 
compartment or partially underneath it. Try moving it to different 
positions to find the option that works best for you.

To Install and Adjust the Utility Compartment and Tray:

1. Insert the front of the utility tray into the slot on the back of 

the shelf rail. Lower the back of the tray into position.

2. Place the front of the utility compartment on top of the shelf 

rail. Lower the back of the compartment onto the ribs on the 
refrigerator door.

3. Adjust the utility compartment by lifting the front slightly and 

sliding it to the desired position. Lower the front to lock it into 
place.

Flip-up Door Shelf

(on some models) 

The shelf bottom flips up so you can store taller items in the door 
shelf below. When in the down position, the shelf is strong 
enough to hold up to 10 lbs. (4.5 kg).

REFRIGERATOR CARE

Cleaning

Both the refrigerator and freezer sections defrost automatically. 
However, clean both sections about once a month to prevent 
odors from building up. Wipe up spills immediately.

To Clean Your Refrigerator:

1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.

2. Remove all removable parts from inside, such as shelves, 

crispers, etc.

3. Hand wash, rinse, and dry removable parts and interior 

surfaces thoroughly. Use a clean sponge or soft cloth and a 
mild detergent in warm water. 

Do not use abrasive or harsh cleaners such as window 
sprays, scouring cleansers, flammable fluids, cleaning 
waxes, concentrated detergents, bleaches or cleansers 
containing petroleum products on plastic parts, interior 
and door liners or gaskets. Do not use paper towels, 
scouring pads, or other harsh cleaning tools. These can 
scratch or damage materials.

To help remove odors, you can wash interior walls with a 
mixture of warm water and baking soda (2 tbs. to 1 qt. 
[26 g to 0.95 L] of water).

4. Determine whether your refrigerator exterior is painted metal, 

brushed aluminum or stainless steel and choose the 
appropriate cleaning method.

Painted metal: Wash exteriors with a clean sponge or soft 
cloth and a mild detergent in warm water. Do not use abrasive 
or harsh cleaners, or cleaners designed for stainless steel. 
Dry thoroughly with a soft cloth. For additional protection 
against damage to painted metal exteriors, apply appliance 
wax (or auto paste wax) with a clean, soft cloth. Do not wax 
plastic parts.

Brushed aluminum: Wash with a clean sponge or soft cloth 
and a mild detergent in warm water. Do not use abrasive or 
harsh cleaners, or cleaners designed for stainless steel. Dry 
thoroughly with a soft cloth.

Stainless steel finish: Wash with a clean sponge or soft 
cloth and a mild detergent in warm water. Do not use abrasive 
or harsh cleaners. Dry thoroughly with a soft cloth. 

To keep your stainless steel refrigerator looking like new 
and to remove minor scuffs or marks, it is suggested that 
you use the manufacturer’s approved Stainless Steel 
Cleaner & Polish. 

IMPORTANT: This cleaner is for stainless steel parts only!

WARNING

Explosion Hazard

Use nonflammable cleaner.

Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.
